In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat until fully melted. Add salt and lemon juice. Place the lobster tails in the butter and poach for about 8-10 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and tender.

Prepare the Lobster

While the lobster is poaching, slice the yellow squash and zucchini into thin rounds. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the squash, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender.

Sauté the Squash

In a pot, combine mussels, saffron, and white wine. Cover and steam until mussels open, about 5 minutes. Remove mussels from the pot and strain the cooking liquid, discarding any unopened mussels. Blend the strained liquid with heavy cream until smooth. Season with salt and stir in chopped chives.

Prepare the Emulsion

On a plate, place a bed of sautéed summer squash, top with butter-poached lobster, and drizzle with saffron-mussel emulsion. Garnish with additional chives if desired.
